I-Robot Sonny Bust
I was looking for one of these a while ago, but didn't fancy paying near £100.00 for it.
I just ordered one from ebay for £43.99 delivered. I enquired about customs etc, and they said that they mark it as a "gift" to avoid any further costs. I will see how it goes.
They have 4 left if anyone's interested:

Re: I-Robot Sonny Bust
This version is only half scale though (8 inches tall according to the description} the other sonny head (assuming your talking about the dvd boxset one) is full size, I think I paid around £70 for that one.
Though this one does look nice

Re: I-Robot Sonny Bust
Hi Freero
I wasn't talking about the DVD case one.
This one is a limited edition motion detector one that normally goes for double this price (even on ebay). Only 3000 worldwide IIRC. Also never brought out in the UK.

Re: I-Robot Sonny Bust
Got mine yesterday. No customs problems - the label was marked as a $2.99 gift.
Must say, this is the best packaged item I have ever bought over the internet. It must have took me a good 10 minutes before I actually got my hands on Sonny. I would deffo recommend one of these.

Re: I-Robot Sonny Bust
Mine took 10 days to arrive (not had time to open it yet though). Does seem very well packaged. Marked as PVC Toy value $2 so customs friendly.

Re: I-Robot Sonny Bust
Yeah. Instant Chinese stamp collection
Now opened this. It really is very well packaged. Feels 'substantial' as well. Recommended.

Re: I-Robot Sonny Bust
Some pics below. The blue light is actually on but it's hard to pick up because of the flash.
